Early in the morning, before the surrounding mist had even dissipated, everyone had already been waiting at the main gate of the Shrek Academy for a long time.
Today, no one wore school uniforms; everyone chose their own clothes.
After a while, Wang Yan accompanied Xuan Zi over. The two of them would be leading the team to Star Luo City for the competition.
Wang Yan was responsible for providing theoretical guidance before the competition, while Xuan Zi was responsible for the safety of these people.
Everyone chatted and laughed along the way, but Cao Yu was undoubtedly the happiest.
So Dai Yueheng could only stare helplessly, and in the end, they could only pretend they hadn't seen anything.
"But you have no idea how much I'm suffering!" Cao Yu complained, though today's situation wasn't as bad as yesterday's, Ma Xiaotao and the others would still pinch his hand from time to time.
It's just that I'm not as strong as I used to be.
Ma Xiaotao chuckled and asked, " Little Yu, does your hand still hurt?"
Looking at that worried face, she felt a sense of relief.
Cao Yu quickly waved his hand, "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt." After saying that, Ma Xiaotao stopped pinching him and walked away on her own.
"Alright, everyone come here." Xuan Zi spat, wiped his mouth with his dirty, greasy sleeve, and shouted irritably.
The crowd quickly stepped forward and stood in a circle around him.
Before long, Xuan Zi explained the specific duties of the Inner Court students, which was to become inspectors and specifically deal with and eliminate Evil Soul Master.
After learning about the dangers of these missions, not a single person left; everyone chose to join, for which Xuan Zi nodded in satisfaction.
Looking at the members of the reserve team, Xuan Zi chuckled and said, "Good! You're all excellent."
After distributing the equipment to these observers, the reserve team, including the official members of the Shrek Seven Devils, all received a mission.
The mission is to travel to a mountainous region bordering the Star Luo Empire and the Sun Moon Empire, and find and kill a group of Evil Soul Master bandits who call themselves the Death Messenger.
"Why does this seem vaguely familiar?" Cao Yu thought about it carefully before remembering that the Shrek Seven Devils suffered heavy losses as a result of this operation.
"It seems necessary to remind them later."
After all, Cao Yu didn't want to see Ma Xiaotao get hurt because of this. In any case, it didn't matter whether he participated in the competition or not. He was happy to take a break and relax.
Soon, the group flew away into the distance.
With Xuan Zi leading the way, the group moved very quickly. An hour later, they finally arrived at the border between the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire.
Ahead, a large military camp blocked their way.
Before long, Dai Yueheng went down and borrowed dozens of Flying Soul Tool.
After all, his father was a great general of the Star Luo Empire; he could easily borrow something.
Just then, a gasp came from the side. Wang Dong asked with some doubt, "Made by the Cao family?"
Then everyone began to observe carefully, and Xuan Zi also observed his particularly special Flying Soul Tool.
" Little Yu, could this be related to you too?" Xuan Zi asked uncertainly.
At this moment, everyone looked at him strangely, including Dai Yueheng.
Cao Yu chuckled and said, "Probably, after all, our Cao Clan has another business that involves this, but I didn't expect to even have military camps on the border."
It seems my brother-in-law is quite capable; he completed the plan so quickly.
However, it seems that the Soul Tool Institute in Star Luo City is progressing quite quickly. It appears that the Shadow Clone left behind and the captured Soul Engineer have not disappointed him.
Upon closer inspection, these Flying Soul Tool reveal a significant difference from ordinary ones; they have all been modified.
The original Flying Soul Tool could only provide flight capabilities; it had no means of defense or attack.
However, in Cao Yu's design, small projectile launch ports were set at both ends of this Flying Soul Tool.
Furthermore, three small missiles can be mounted at the bottom of the Flying Soul Tool. There is a window on the bottom that can be opened and closed at any time, at which point the missiles can fall down.
Dropping it from high altitude to the ground can deliver a fatal blow to the enemy.
The aircraft is also equipped with chaff and flares on its forewing section, which are specifically designed for escape, essentially achieving integrated offense and defense.
Considering that the reserve team members were not yet proficient in operating the Soul Tool, Xuan Zi asked everyone to stay where they were and get used to the operation of the Flying Soul Tool in advance.
Several hours later, they prepared to set off again.
After everyone has taken off and begun flying forward.
Xuan Zi's voice rang out, "Everything's ready. Three, two, one. Let's go!"
With the help of this Flying Soul Tool.
With Xuan Zi leading the fifteen of them by himself, it took at least two hours to traverse a distance that was probably more than three thousand miles.
It must be said that the development of Soul Tool has indeed promoted the convenience of life in one aspect.
It was already past midnight when they arrived at the western border of the Star Luo Empire, at which point Xuan Zi finally stopped.
Xuan Zi, "I made quite a commotion when I landed; the military must have spotted me."
"It's only about fifty miles from here to the Western Army Group of the Star Luo Empire. Their people should be here soon. Little Dai, you go and handle it. I'm going to get some sleep."
Not long after Xuan Zi left, a squad of thirty warriors appeared in mid-air, all dressed in black, tight-fitting leather armor.
Then Dai Yueheng, looking helpless, began negotiating with one of the elderly men.
The elderly man at the head of the group was a Seven-Ring Soul Sage level expert, and soon he led everyone into the military camp.
"This person looks familiar. I feel like I've seen him somewhere before."
The old man glanced at Cao Yu suspiciously a few times along the way, but because it was getting dark, he didn't recognize him.
They slept soundly until dawn, and then hurriedly got up. Not long after, Xuan Zi once again led them flying into the distance.
When they arrived at the Ming Dou Mountain Range, the military camps there were as dense as a forest, all built against the mountainside.
"We've finally arrived at base camp." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as this kind of travel had really taken a toll on their bodies.
To the northwest of the military camp, one can still see a city wall that is at least thirty meters high.
Military camps swept past their feet, and after flying for nearly fifteen minutes, a large cowhide tent came into view in the distance.
Compared to the other tents, this cowhide tent was much larger, hexagonal in shape, and made entirely of dark brown tanned cowhide.
There weren't many guards around, only two patrol teams of about thirty White Tiger Guards each.
The group landed in the air. Du Leisi, who was at the front, could no longer keep up and bowed slightly, saying, "Marshal, the young master and the people from the Shrek Academy have arrived."
At this moment, the tall man turned around, and the next second he walked straight over. Just when everyone thought he was going to say something to Dai Yueheng, he suddenly walked up to Cao Yu.
Then he suddenly laughed and said, "Haha, it's windy here, Young Master Cao, please come inside."
Even the White Tiger Duke treated him so well. Ma Xiaotao, Xiao Xiao, Bei Bei, Wang Dong, and the others were all dumbfounded at this moment. Just how powerful was Cao Yu?
